Notes
Studio recording for 'All My Friends Are Dead' (2005, 'Party Animals' album). Gear confirmed for band/era, but not 100% tied to this exact session. No evidence of alternate guitars or amps for the riff section. No evidence of pedal use for main riff; Orange amp provides core distortion.

Difficulty
The riff is fast and aggressive, requiring tight palm muting and stamina for downstroke picking, but uses straightforward power chords and rhythm patterns typical of punk rock.
